Google Pixel Watch 3 unofficial renders have no surprises to reveal

Android is available on a wide variety of devices, but not all of them have Google’s official blessing, let alone a product with Google’s name on it. In fact, it wasn’t until 2022 that Google launched its own smartwatch to stand along with sporty and stylish options from luxury brands. The Google Pixel Watch represents to some extent the vision that Google has for Wear OS smartwatches, and it seems that this vision hasn’t changed much over the past three years. At least that seems to be the impression you’ll get from these Pixel Watch 3 renders that, unsurprisingly, have an uncanny resemblance to the Pixel Watch 2 last year.

In terms of design, the Pixel Watches have admittedly been quite distinctive. While their peers sported mostly flat screens with bezels reminiscent of classic watches, the Pixel Watch has a very curved surface, almost like an upturned bowl, that gave it a sleek and modern look. Just like the Pixel 6 smartphone, it is a design that spoke to the heart of many fans, and thankfully Google doesn’t seem to have any plans of changing that yet.

Based on unofficial renders of the smartwatch, the upcoming Pixel Watch 3 has the exact same design as its predecessor, save for one subtle detail you’ll never notice just by looking at the device. According to rumors, the Pixel Watch 3 will be slightly thicker than the Pixel Watch 2, and this is mostly due to a slightly larger battery as well. That’s 307mAh versus 304mAh, which is honestly an almost negligible difference. On the flip side, the Pixel 3’s height and width are allegedly smaller at 40.79 x 40.73 mm than the 41 x 41 mm of the Pixel Watch 2.

There isn’t much information yet about the rest of the Pixel Watch 3, but we do expect some more senses and, more importantly, a pinch of AI. Of course, the watch itself won’t be powerful enough for on-device AI features, so it will have to tie up with a paired smartphone. The Pixel Watch 3 is also expected to come in two sizes, with a larger Pixel Watch 3 Pro also in the works.
